What European city has had the longest stretch of peace? By peace
I
mean no wars, raids, bombardmants, mass riots, etc affecting the
city
or it's immediate environs.

Choose any city in Switzerland. Reykjavik has been pretty peaceful
too.

There was a bit of sectarian violence in Switzerland during
the reformation, think Geneva, John Calvin, Ulrich Zwingli, etc.


That was a while ago...
